IMPORTANT NOTE: This Privacy Policy applies to any personally identifiable information that you provide to us for purposes of accessing our content, such as poems, poetry, screenplays, movies, series content, sci-fi stories, current affairs, politics, and healthcare information.

1. Collection of Information

We do not collect or share any sensitive personal information from online visitors unless explicitly provided by you for specific purposes, such as contacting us or subscribing to updates.

We may collect the following types of information:

– Contact information, such as your full name, email address, mobile phone number, and address (if you choose to provide it);
– Username and password (if applicable for user accounts);
– Any other information you voluntarily provide to us, such as feedback or inquiries.

We may combine such information with data we already have about you from previous interactions.

We may use cookies, pixel tags, Local Shared Objects, and similar technologies to automatically collect non-personal information. Cookies are small bits of data stored by your computer’s web browser. Pixel tags are small images or data embedded in pages, also known as “web beacons” or “clear GIFs,” that can recognize cookies, track page views, and gather similar usage data from your device. Local Shared Objects function like cookies but can store more data via Adobe Flash. By using our website, you consent to our use of cookies and similar technologies.

Information from Third-Party Services: If you access our website from an advertisement on a third-party website, application, or service (a “Third-Party Service”), we may receive information from that Third-Party Service related to you or the advertisement.

We may also receive information about you from other sources, including third-party services and organizations. We may combine our first-party data, such as your email address or name, with third-party data to contact you (e.g., via email newsletters). For example, if you connect through third-party services like Facebook, Google, or Twitter to log in or share content, we may collect information from these services.

2. Use of Information

We may use the information we collect to:

– Provide and improve our website and content;
– Contact you in response to your inquiries;
– Fulfill your requests for information or subscriptions;
– Send you updates about new content, such as poems, poetry, screenplays, movies, series content, sci-fi stories, or articles on current affairs, politics, or healthcare;
– Analyze website usage and user data to understand and enhance our services;
– Prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities and enforce our Terms of Use; and
– For any other purposes disclosed to you at the time of collection or with your consent.

Regarding healthcare content: Any healthcare-related information on our site is for educational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice. We do not collect personal health information unless voluntarily provided in general inquiries.

3. Sharing of Information

We are committed to maintaining your trust and will only share information as described below:

-Corporate Affiliates: We may share your information with our affiliates for operational purposes.
-Legal Purposes: We may disclose information to respond to subpoenas, court orders, legal processes, law enforcement requests, legal claims, or government inquiries, and to protect the rights, interests, health, safety, and security of LitNova Online, our affiliates, users, or the public.

If you engage in public activities on third-party sites we link to, be aware that any information you share can be read, collected, or used by others. Use caution when disclosing personal information in such areas. We are not responsible for information you submit publicly.

No personal information provided during general inquiries is used for marketing purposes.

To opt out of interest-based advertising, visit the websites of the Digital Advertising Alliance or Network Advertising Initiative. You may also opt out through your browser or device settings, though this may apply only to the specific browser or device. Opting out means you may still see ads, but they may not be tailored to your interests, and your experience on our site could be affected.

7. For Android Users – Required Google Play Disclosures for Certain Health Apps

During situations like the COVID-19 pandemic, some government applications and websites may collect health data for tracking purposes, potentially using the microphone, location, or call records. We are not responsible for such third-party or government actions.
